10 I belong to my beloved,
    and his desire(A) is for me.(B)
11 Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside,
    let us spend the night in the villages.[a]
12 Let us go early to the vineyards(C)
    to see if the vines have budded,(D)
if their blossoms(E) have opened,
    and if the pomegranates(F) are in bloom(G)
    there I will give you my love.
13 The mandrakes(H) send out their fragrance,
    and at our door is every delicacy,
both new and old,
    that I have stored up for you, my beloved.(I)
